Problem 2(30 Points)
A microscopic spring-mass system has a mass \( m=5\times 10^{-26}\mathrm{~kg}\) and the energy gap between the 2nd and 3rd excited states is 5 eV .
a)(5 Points) Calculate the energy gap between the 4 th and 7th excited states: \(\Delta_{4.7}=\)[eV]
b)(5 Points) The energy of the ground state is: \(\mathbf{E}_{0}=\)[eV]
c)(5 Points) The stiffness of the spring is: \( k_{3}=\)[\(\mathrm{N}/\mathrm{m}\)]
d)(5 Points) What is the wavelength of the smallest energy photon emitted by this system? \(\mathrm{A}=\)[m]
e)(3 Points) If the stiffness of the spring increases, the wavelength calculated in the previous part
f)(2 Points) If the mass increases, the energy gap between successive energy levels
g)(5 Points) What should the stiffness of the spring be, so that the transition from the 3rd excited state to the 2 nd excited state emits a photon with energy 5.5 eV ?\(\mathrm{k}_{\mathrm{s}}=\)[N/m]
